The Food Collection

Photoshopped images of half-cooked, glycerine-coated, impeccably presented dishes are the staple of today's food magazines. They borrow heavily from the romantic, idealised and ordered 'still life' paintings of the classics.

But food has never been 'still' for me. It is fashioned without finesse, ingredients and dishes are waved, shaken and used to illustrate tales before and during meals.

This collections' images are not those of fine dining, lavish dinners or the competitive cooking of evening television, rather, they are the stuff of the home - where parents and grandparents cook with children and the ingredients are sourced from the backyard, the market and the sea.

Hands are vital and knives and utensils are critical, there is no single perspective because no-one and nothing stays still.
